1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Ameloblastic carcinoma is a rare malignant odontogenic tumor that is further classified into being primary or secondary arising from a preexisting benign ameloblastoma. It affects the mandible in two thirds of the patients. There is no standard treatment protocol for this lesion but radicalsurgical excision with or without radiotherapy is reported in the majority of cases. In this paper, we present a case of a 22 year old male diagnosed with Ameloblastic carcinoma of the mandible with a clinical course of typical aggressiveness and extensive destruction. Histopathological examination of the incised biopsy showed a parakeratinized stratified squamous epithelium with underlying fibrous connective tissue stroma. The stroma is highly myxomatous and exhibits islands of odontogenic epithelium and chronic inflammatory cell infiltrates. Interlacing strands of odontogenic epithelium shows stellate reticulum-like cells and occasional areas of squamous metaplasia with cellular and nuclear pleomorphism. In addition, mitotic figures were noted. With the correlation of clinical, radiographic, and histological features, the lesion is diagnosed as ameloblastic carcinoma. The lesion was surgical excised and post-treatment follow-up for 6 months revealed no recurrence of the malignancy.
